Thread resurrection !
Coming back from a ride i discovered that the lower plunger cup on the right side, was stuck against the other cup above it. It probably happened when I went over a road bump on "high" speed.
I remember reading discussions about using springs as an upgrade to the rubber bushings. Any feedback on that ? Still need the rubber bushings or simply replace them with the springs ?

I'd be interested in knowing
I thought there were "helper springs" that you add but I might be thinking about another bike brand?

Painting the tank and pinstriping
I hope those who helped me along the way are well and still around and wouldn't mind weighing in (again). I bought a tank and it needs some repair. It is dented above the emblem on the right. Where do we send the tanks to be painted and pinstriped?
I would love some pointers, especially from the more seasoned members. I don't mind shipping, but if delivery is an option, I would like it to be somewhere in New England. I have a call into Mr. Chris Betjemann as well, but he has not responded yet.
